Five Reasons to Attend the 2017 International Resilience Summit

The National Resilience Institute understands that pioneering a human resilience movement starts with you taking action within your own community. This is why our annual Resilience Summit is dedicated to sharing the best in speakers, resources, and practices to equip you with the tools needed to strengthen yourself and others.

The Summit is carefully designed to enhance collaboration across traditional silos in order to create the type of robust solutions needed to face today’s most complex challenges. Within an environment of self-care, we enhance learning by using innovative modalities such as powerful films, facilitated learning, and interactive master workshops.

We have selected experts across a variety of sectors and from around the world who will share with you the knowledge you need to continue to thrive in your work. From community innovators to federal leaders and international researchers, be ready to be inspired and motivated to return home with the information you can put into practice and share with others. We value education and generously share our most trusted, influential human resilience pioneers with you.

We are offering an additional half day of workshops to dedicate the time needed for more in-depth interactive and informative sessions. Come ready to learn, to seek new information, and to share your own perspectives.

Workshops include:
